Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Lay chicken breasts on a large tray, season with salt, pepper, and oil, and pour about a cup of water around them.

Bake the chicken in the oven for about 20 minutes to keep it succulent.

Lay out slices of bacon on a tray and bake in the same oven for about 12-15 minutes until crispy.

Boil eggs for 8 minutes, then cool them in cold water to prevent a black ring around the yolk.

Chop the mixed greens roughly after washing and draining them.

Chop the tomatoes and avocado into small pieces.

Prepare the dressing by mixing three parts oil to one part red wine vinegar, adding a tablespoon of French mustard, half a clove of raw garlic, and seasoning with salt and pepper.

Whisk the dressing together and taste to adjust seasoning.

Peel and chop the boiled eggs roughly.

Dress the mixed greens with the dressing before assembling the salad.

Layer the chicken, bacon, eggs, tomatoes, avocado, and blue cheese on top of the dressed greens.
